Our record on ESTC

Every scored call, pick and trade this diary has made on Elastic NV, with the outcome where it is known.

Company snapshot — Elastic NV

ESTC in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Elastic builds software for searching, storing and analysing data across hybrid and multi-cloud setups, sold as Elasticsearch. Its platform includes a vector database and search engine for text, numeric and unstructured data, a Kibana interface for management, tools that let language models retrieve grounded answers, a security product and an observability suite for logs and infrastructure. It sells mostly through cloud subscriptions. Elastic is based in Amsterdam and listed in the United States after its 2018 IPO.
Where it sits in the stack
Elastic holds a seat in the Agentic Winners 40, our index for software that agentic AI systems run on. It carries no Rubin layer seat, but the diary's dossiers place it in the data-organisation part of that build-out, among software platforms that query and structure data for retrieval, sitting downstream of the flash-storage vendors that hold the data.
Who it is priced against
Our curated peer group prices Elastic against observability and data platforms — Datadog, Dynatrace, ServiceNow, Snowflake and MongoDB — the set the market compares it with rather than a simple sector match.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
Elastic sits in our Agentic Winners 40 index and carries a Closelooknet score, though only one module is built so far, so the score is still forming. The diary has quoted it across dossiers on agentic winners, on agentic application software and on the orchestration layer of agentic infrastructure, each naming it as the search and retrieval piece other platforms build against.
What the diary watches
The diary watches whether rival data platforms in its peer group add comparable vector-search and retrieval tools, which would test Elastic's place as the retrieval backbone named in the dossiers, and whether coverage widens enough for a second score module.

Elastic NV (ESTC) trades on US exchanges, classified under Technology. Constituent of Agentic Winners 40.

Dividends and capital return no distribution in twelve months · buybacks 340 m USD in FY2026

Dividends and capital return

What ESTC pays out and buys back — distributions read from the price series, money terms from the filings.

  • Distributions No cash distribution recorded in the price series over the last three years
  • Buybacks, FY2026 340 m USD 3.6% of today's market value
  • Share count +3.4% in FY2026 298 m USD of stock-based compensation in the year
  • Capital returned 340 m USD · 106% of free cash flow dividends and buybacks together, against the year’s free cash flow

Per-share amounts are derived from the adjusted price series in the listing currency, so dates sit within days of the ex-date; filing figures come from the fundamentals feed for the last reported fiscal year. An investment diary, not a recommendation.

How it trades on rate days beta 0.50 to TLT · on the worst bond days it held up better than the market

How it trades on rate days

How ESTC has moved when long-dated Treasury yields rise — measured against TLT, the 20+ year Treasury fund.

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.50 — shows only a loose link to bond moves for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), Elastic NV moved 0.50% on average · correlation 0.08 · higher than 52% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months 0.90 more rate-sensitive lately than over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days +0.11% on average against −0.74% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days 0.00% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24

Daily total returns from the adjusted price series; a TLT down day is a day long yields rose. Beta = the average move of the name for a 1% move in TLT. Past sensitivity, not a forecast. An investment diary, not a recommendation.
